Electronic Arts Inc. announced today that the legendary war-based first-person shooter titled Medal of Honor is going to launch on the 15th of October, 2010 throughout Europe.

The shipping date will be announced today through an emotionally charged trailer called “Leave a Message”. The trailer will show a United Stated Army Ranger platoon heading into combat on a helicopter. The chaos and uncertainty of the mission is belied by the reassuring voice of one of the Rangers as he reaches out to his family back home.

An all-new Medal of Honor is coming in 2010, and for the first time in the 10 years it’s going to walk away from the World War II scene. Medal of Honor will take place in a war-torn Afghanistan in the modern days.

Electronic Arts Inc. revealed today that they will release an all-new Medal of Honor in the summer of 2010. The game will introduce the Tier One Operator, which is a unseen force controlled by the National Command Authority, who takes on missions no one else can handle. That’s why the development team has been working with some Tier 1 Operators from the U.S. Special Operations Community since the beginning to create a greater modern war experience.
